Went looking for a bolt of batting or a bolt of muslin. They just redid our Joann's- I couldn't find them.

So I wandered around, bought some thread and 6 fat quarters, rotary blades and sewing needles. Things I need all the time.

Came home and lined up my cones of thread. So how long will 8 cones of white thread last? And 3 of black, 2 of navy, and other colors. I better get sewing! (my sewing machine loves the overlock thread for $1.99- on sale for half off.)

I amazed myself- did not buy a yard of fabric!! I resisted- OK the lines at the cutting tables helped.

So, $50 lighter (oh, that's later) I came home with "stuff." But I needed it- all of it. yes, that's what I'm telling myself.
